- I couldn't tell you.
I really don't remember.
I know it's an iconic album but probably
somewhere in one of those homes we had.
I couldn't tell you.
Probably Malibu.
Was probably somewhere in Malibu.

- The day The Chronic dropped I was smoking chronic.
In Watts.
Watts or Compton.
Who knows?
Somewhere around South Central Los Angeles.
I was smoking chronic the day The Chronic dropped.
- I don't remember where I was,
but I do remember listening to it fully
in my father's basement in the laundry room,
and just being stunned by everything.
By each song as it came.
I remember (bleep) ain't (bleep) particularly,
and how amazing that record was.
And you know, just being like,
you know how is it that the worse,
the most misogynistic record is also the best groove?
Like it was really, it was the whole you know,
thing of how you know gangsta music can be really beautiful,
but you know really ugly at the same time.
- I was in the studio with LL in New York actually
when The Chronic came out.
And I remember he said I heard that Dre just made
the best album hip hop has ever heard.
Like whatever he did with DOC, he just doubled that.
You know what I mean?
And so that was easily the best album anybody had heard.

- Can't remember.
These were our party central.
This was like the 90s.
You want me to remember the day?
Party central when the Doggystyle dropped?
I don't.
- I remember that day.
The day Doggystyle dropped, we were in Washington D.C.,
and we knew it was dropping that day,
'cause we wanted to hear exactly
what Snoop was saying about us.
So we went and bought Doggystyle,
and we played it in the van all the way to the airport.
We wasn't really impressed initially.
We was like eh.
So yeah, I remember that day well.
I was in Washington D.C. the day Doggystyle dropped.
- [Interviewer] Did the record grow on you?
- It grew on me, of course.
'Cause then they started putting the visuals out,
and the more you heard it, the more you liked it.
- I think I was when I first heard Doggystyle I was in a
conference room at The Source,
and we were listening to like a preview.
Like we had the album before everybody else.
Snoop was such a big star and this was like
the follow up to The Chronic,
and the more I listened to it, the more I loved it.
- Dogg was at The Summit and me and Daz
was over at the Oakwood with our own apartments.
(upbeat music)
- Well, you know I'm on that one.
But I don't remember where it was.
It was party central.
You know when they dropped Dogg Food,
I don't know where I was.
And I didn't even know that was gonna be
the first single that I was on.
I didn't know that until I heard the song.
